Compliance and diligence
Source of Wealth intelligence can support a risk-based review of a high-value or higher-risk relationship.
Wealth Origin and Evolution
Do Not Just Estimate Wealth. Understand How It Was Created.
A net-worth estimate answers how much. Source of Wealth intelligence explains how the wealth originated, accumulated, moved, and changed over time.
Diligencify connects business ownership, compensation, investments, inheritance, exits, share sales, assets, and other significant wealth events into a structured, evidence-backed narrative.
Build the Story Behind the Number
Wealth is rarely explained by one event or one holding. A founder may own interests through several entities. An executive may combine compensation, equity awards, investments, and property. A family may hold assets through trusts, foundations, partnerships, and cross-border structures.
Diligencify investigates the available record, connects relevant events over time, and separates supported findings from estimates and assumptions. The result is a clearer account of the origins and evolution of wealth.

The availability and strength of evidence vary by subject, jurisdiction, asset type, and reporting environment.
A Timeline, Not a Single Estimate
Diligencify can organize Source of Wealth as a chronology. This makes it easier to see when wealth was created, which entities or assets contributed, what changed through later transactions, and where evidence is strong or incomplete.
The analysis can be viewed alongside current net worth, liquid wealth, business interests, relationships, and risk. This broader context helps teams avoid treating an isolated estimate as a complete financial picture.
One Capability, Several Workflows
Wealth, philanthropy and luxury
For wealth managers, private banks, nonprofits, universities, and luxury brands, the same capability can help assess capacity, understand how wealth is held, identify recent liquidity, and prepare more relevant engagement.
Legal and professional services
It can support client acceptance, matter research, investigative assignments, or an evidence-backed client deliverable.
Connected to New Wealth and Wealth Signals
Source of Wealth is not only retrospective. Wealth Signals can surface events such as a business sale, IPO, share transaction, or asset disposal. New Wealth then helps identify individuals whose financial position may have recently changed and provides the context required to understand the event.
Teams can move from an event to a person, from a person to the wealth story, and from the initial research to ongoing monitoring.
